Forward guidance
Simulations Plus achieved its goal of accelerating organic growth to 15-20%, overcoming headwinds from the COVID-19 pandemic due to continued strong growth from both our software and consulting revenue streams. Our future growth prospects were bolstered by a significant acquisition to expand our software business, growing our European presence, and the recent introductions of new software versions as well as the launch of several important collaborations. We continue to invest in R&D, funded both internally and from leading pharmaceutical and regulatory agencies, building on our leadership position in modelling and simulation for the drug development marketplace.
